::::::: Fixed Psyco. There's still a few double counted or misrepresented task entries around. As I find them, I'll fix them. If you notice one, either fix it or point it out to me. Thanks. --[[User:Thundergnat|Thundergnat]] ([[User talk:Thundergnat|talk]]) 23:12, 20 January 2020 (UTC)
:::::::: As far as misrepresented task entries (for counting), there are several, and I do not know where they all are. Such entries are where all the '''BASIC'''s were lumped into one section, and each flavor of BASIC was then entered under a sub-section (most often on a different page), and those sub-sections of BASIC aren't counted (as per all the types/flavors of BASIC). One such Rosetta Code task is '''99 Bottles of Beer''', (the BASIC section) where they were all clumped together under BASIC. This, if I remember, was part of a campaign to reduce the size of some (large) Rosetta Code pages by grouping the BASICs into one (sub-section), and then have a BASIC page for that Rosetta Code task. I have no idea how deep that project went. One by-product of that is, some Rosetta Code tasks have (for instance) '''Wee Basic''' under BASIC, others have it at the end of the programming language list, under the '''W'''s, making it a tad harder to locate a particular BASIC when browsing Rosetta Code tasks solutions. But the bottom line is that most flavors of '''BASIC''' are under-counted. And some BASICs like '''Locomotive Basic''' (note the difference in the capitalization of BASIC in these last two examples), according to some, shouldn't even belong under the BASIC umbrella). -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 00:01, 21 January 2020 (UTC)
